    If I had to pick a place in Charlotte to get hate crimed, no better place than Coyote Joe's. This is the place to see smaller country artists that are up and coming. As for the atmosphere, think stepping back into 1950, but country. If you're a white man, remember to wear sleeves. If you're a white girl, no shirt = free drinks (at least according the signs inside). If you're a minority of any kind (black, brown, gay, etc.), do not set foot into this place. Staff extremely rude, actually cursed us out. You wanna be a country bar in the city? That's fine. Either get with the times, ditch the double standards, or get left in the past.

    Overall I think this is a fun bar. It might not be for everyone, but if you're from the south and like country music even a little bit, you'll probably have a good time here. Seems like the place stays pretty busy and they have a lot of regulars. Plenty of dancing, live music, pool tables, bars, and even a mechanical bull. I would definitely go back. Pretty much my only gripe is that all the bars are cash only. Of course they have an ATM inside if needed, but it's still pretty inconvenient and not with the times. It's also 18+, so some of the crowd can be considerably young. Again though, I'd come back.

    This is a country music bar in Charlotte and ok as far as bars go. We were lucky enough to see Luke Combs there for the taping of Apple Music Live. The place was packed beyond capacity with no AC and the fans were barely moving. Someone in the crowd passed out from the heat on the second song and Luke had to stop the concert. Luke was awesome though.

    Very interesting experience! There’s bull riding in the back, line dances taught on Wednesdays, country environment but all seem welcome and can fit in! Definitely a younger crowd on the weekends. Make sure you take cash! Not a great area so walk in pairs to and from your car… but overall a good time!

    Had an awesome time last night. This was our first time at Coyote joes and we had an absolute blast. First off the bars were ready and flowing and the drinks were the perfect blend. We grabbed our drinks and hit the dance floor to secure our spot for the oncoming show. THE HOUSE BAND KILLED IT. various songs from various artist and every one was shredded by the electric guitarist (Steve) I believe his name was. WE WILL BE COMING BACK. 3 hour trip to see Priscilla Block and we had such a great time we are already talking about our next trip to Coyote Joe's !!!!!

    Very interesting and peculiar bar and country show venture. Huge place properly staffed with friendly service. Cash only. The show was crowed but acceptable. Looking forward to returning for the line dance

    Make sure to bring cash for any of the drinks at the bar! Bartenders were super nice whenever I asked for a drink. Music is on the older side, but as a kid who grew up listening to it, a lot of fun! Had so much fun on the dance floor with my friends and the band was great

    As far as a country concert I don’t recommend coming here. We went to see Hardy last night and I’m beyond disappointed. I love Hardy and was super excited to see him but the venue was SO over packed. People were getting trampled on, there was no where to stand or walk. Staff was incredibly rude, when there was a tiny bit of space to stand in the walk way so you weren’t getting trampled on the staff would yell at you to move and say you can’t stand here, forcing you to go back to getting pushed and shoved. It should not have been this over packed especially since Hardy is playing 3 nights in a row. And don’t even bother showing up to the event early to get a good view up front, we were outside waiting in the rain for 4 hours, we were clearly some of the first people but when it came time to open the doors they made 7 different lines and the people that had just gotten in the line got to go first. Highly don’t recommend this place for concerts. Staff was rude and we had to leave early after the second song of Hardy’s due to there being no room to breathe, as well as alot of other people were leaving. Hardy i love you and I’m really sad that this horrible experience at Coyote joes made me waste my time and money. Couldn’t even enjoy the experience because of the management at this establishment.

    The house band was great and Scotty knows how to put on a show! The bars were pretty easy to get to if you were in the front row and near the edge like I was! The staff was nice and attentive. The security was ready to deal with situations that would arise. Overall it was a great night and I hope to be back soon!

    We attended last night's Dylan Scott concert the show was great for what we got to see of it. Coyote Joe's was so hot and Smokey in there that we ended up leaving almost an hour early and we will not be going back for any future concerts until they do renovations. The place is a dump it still has 70's era wall paneling, smells like a straight smoker's lounge, people were smoking inside the place vs going outside right in front of the security guards, the bathrooms are outdated, they're AC system is not adequate enough for the amount of people they had at the concert last night you could only feel it working in certain areas of their facility. Even Dylan Scott said the place needed to turn the AC on, for how large the facility is they are still using old outdated 36" inch house ceiling fans from the 70's, They say they sold out the place but there were so many people in there everybody was literally on top of each other like in a mosh pit at a heavy metal concert, There was a girl near my group that got hit in the face by accident because how tightly packed everybody was and she end up leaving from what we could hear her friends say, we were not the only ones that left a hour early there was lots of people leaving early at the same time we did. By the time we left we are all agreed we will not come back until Coyote Joe's does renovations on the place

    Best bar around! One crazy night 7 years ago I stumbled into this bar and ever since the man of my future connected his soul to my heart. Bartenders are amazing, drinks are amazing and the house.band is legit the best around! Xo Coyotes forever n the future!

    My friends and I went here for the very first time, and it was a lot of fun! Full disclosure though - we were amateurs on the dance floor! They teach on Wednesdays, but on the other nights, you just have to keep up, which was easy sometimes and hard others, haha! You may want to YouTube line dancing before coming if you want to dance well! They also have a mechanical bull and a coat check! One thing they didn't have was food, which was weird, since they served alcoholic beverages! There was a food truck outside though, which we didn't know until after we left. We will definitely go back another time!

    A very fun place to dance and hangout with friends, especially if you enjoy country music! You don’t have a to a country fan or “cow girl” attire like I thought you would to fit in. Many different people come to dance and have fun here. The drinks are well priced and the dance floor lessons are so much fun. They offer them every Wednesday night 7:30-9! You get to learn three dances, and don’t worry if you don’t have any experience, you will get the hang of it! The venue is very large, with plenty of sitting/standing areas, and a mechanical bull! They also have tons of gravel parking (free) and outdoor lounging areas. A very fun place to hang out!

    I had such high hopes but it's literally the worst venue I've ever been to. I will never come back no matter who the artist is. Tickets were way oversold. Total fire hazard. Zero room to move around. A fight waiting to happen. Sound quality was terrible. I started to leave to but somehow the sound quality got better towards the exit, and it was less crowded so I stayed. But I wish I would have left as planned since being trapped in a standstill for over 40 minutes. LOTS of improvements needed.

    We danced with the best in Charlotte!! What a fantastic experience in such a cool atmosphere. If you ever wondered what it's like to be in a country music video then join the fun at Coyote Joe's! My husband and I felt so welcomed by the regulars who made sure to say hi and introduce themselves. The energy was amazing, the room was buzzing with excitement. My heart is so full! Can't wait to bring our friends and family to dance with them again asap.

    The music was awesome. The staff was friendly, and the service at the bar was fast. The drink prices were very reasonable. My friends and I had a great time, and we will return.
